Quote (journey42 @ Mar. 03 2013,19:11)Sorry,  I greeted you but it didn't come out.  Looks rude of me. Hi Mike, how are you?(my mouse is playing up, very frustrated typing lately!)Maybe your mouse needs a new battery?  I very rarely post a greeting.  If you ever don't see one from me, just pretend that it's there, because it is implied.  [Read more]

Quote (journey42 @ Mar. 03 2013,00:26)Hi MikeTo me, it's clear that the earth was created in 6 literal days.A day for God can be like a thousand years for us, right?

Quote (terraricca @ Mar. 02 2013,09:47)why would God punished the snake animal that isThere is scripture that tells of God punishing land, because of the things people did on it.Jesus also punished the fig tree that had no fruit when he wanted some.
